Kindergarten James Rizzi Style Mother's Day Cards!

Aren't these the cutest? Today with my kindergarten class, they did James Rizzi style mother's day cards. Inspired by this post, I showed students how to draw the birds using Sharpie. Then, they added little squiggles and circles around the bird, to look like confetti and streamers (celebrating Mom!) On the inside, they wrote their message - Bonne Fête des Mères!

This lesson was nice and quick - I only have 30 minutes with the kinders per week, and we were able to do the entire thing, including cleanup, in that time!
